MUNNING 101: Why you should take part!
MUN is the abbreviation of Model United Nations. It’s a platform created for students from both schools and universities to participate and gain knowledge on how the UN works along with being aware of various global issues.
To put it in simple terms, MUN is just a model of the original United Nations. The students from various institutions come to the event as delegates of various nations to participate and debate. Finally, after the conference, you come out of the event as an enlightened person.
Role of MUNs in the Modern Day World
MUNs have evolved from a mere formal conference to a majestic event, generally hosted by prestigious colleges like fests, with a lot of marketing and planning. It is also an event to show an institution’s ability to manage events, organise, hospitality and a lot more.
MUN is the latest trend in India now, where MUN has turned differently from a mere event of participation to a passionate hobby for many.
